There are many routes up/down this mountain. I don't know which is best, but I can tell you the best views I found were on the Crest Trail south of the peak.
The background picture on this page show the rock formations that I believe are found in Chiricahua National Monument. To my knowledge none of these are visible on any standard route up Chiricahua Peak. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.
